You’re in Luck! Or you’ll want to be with this lineup at Willie’s place

Willie Nelson performs at Luck Reunion on March 16, 2017 in Spicewood, Texas. This year’s event is set for March 15, 2018.

March 15 is the date for this year’s Luck Reunion, the annual musical gathering out at Willie Nelson’s fictional ghost-town in Spicewood in the midst of South by Southwest. Top names on the bill this year include Kurt Vile, Josh Ritter, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, Nikki Lane, Waxahatchee and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.

Plenty of Austin and Texas acts are on the bill as well. They include Willie’s kids Lukas Nelson (with his band Promise of the Real) and Micah Nelson (with Particle Kid), John Doe (now living in Austin), Ray Wylie Hubbard, Kelly Willis, David Ramirez, Paul Cauthen, Texas Gentlemen, Cody Canada, Erika Wennerstrom and Altamesa.

As always, Willie Nelson & Family are scheduled to close out the evening. Nelson recently canceled a slew of winter dates while recovering from the flu, but he’s currently scheduled to return to the road on Feb. 28 in Florida, winding his way back to Texas by mid-March.

More details are available at the Luck Reunion page on Facebook. Tickets for the public are a little tricky, per Tuesday’s press statement about the event: “Tickets are released on a rolling basis via Luck Reunion and participating partners. Future ticket roll-outs will be announced on Luck Reunion’s social media channels.”
